Albany, November 7.—If Warner Miller |
can hold to his support the political man- :
Algers with whom he has been working tiiti
S aat two years, his re-eleution to the United
tates senate seems probable. If they de- I
sert him he will doubtless be retired to I
E rivate life. Since early in the summer he \
as been putting his fences in order for a i
second term. His agents have been active I
in every part of the state, not only in iuflu-;
dicing assembly nominations, but in giv- I
ing needed aid to candidates in doubtful I
districts, while his own visits to agricul
tural fairs huve not been without political |
significance. Considerable skill and eon- ,
siderable success have been shown in the
canvass, and his lrieuds arc confident that
he has bo intrenched himself that his re-
nomination cannot be prevented. They
-claim that he lias 40 out of the 04
-republican votes in the two houses, and
that they cannot be taken away from him.
This would put him at this early day
within eight votes of enough to control the
caucus and give him such a decided lead in
the race that it would be impossible to
combine all the remaining members on
one candidate against him. In this esti
mate the followers of Mr. James D. War
ren, who is still the ruling power in wes
tern New York, are counted tor Mr. Miller.
The Buffalo editor aud the senator have
recently been political partners, but it is
hinted that the former may still have sena
torial ambitions and appear as a candidate
.himself. In that event the Miller column
would be badly shattered. In fact, It
might safely be said that without Mr.
Warren’s hearty support Mr. Miller can
scarcely hope to win.
The senator’s main strength is along the
Mohawk valley and in the farming dis
tricts, where his efforts against oleomarga
rine Bre fully appreciated. From central
New York Congressman Hiscoek comes as
a candidate for senator. His backing will
be almost entirely from the region around
Syracuse, and he probably has nine or ten
who will vote for him. Senator Hendricks
and J. Belden have his canvass in charge.
The only possibility of his election lies in
his selection :i« a compromise between two
equal tactions.
The real, fight will be between Senator
Miller and ex-Minister Levi P. Morton,
who now has country seats at Saratoga
Spiings and Rhinebeck, and may call
either of them his residence to avoid the
objection of two senators from the metrop
olis. On his return from Europe after the
last senatorial contest Mr. Morton discov
ered how terribly his cause had been mis
managed by “Tom” Platt, and determined
if t\e made another trial to conduct the
campaign on different principles. He has
ibeen almost as active as Mr. Miller In
looking after ante-election details. Both
he ana his representatives have been
through the state looking af er and help
ing assemblymen. As a result of their
labors they feel nearly as confident of
winning as Mr. Miller’s friends do.
Mr. Morton has certainly made a
powerful political combination in bis in
terest- The Platt crowd, although they
•will hereafter be kept in the background,
late with him again. Ex-Governor Cornell,
ex-Speaker Sharpe, Committeeman Teaie,
of Greene county; ex-Senator Hamilton
HarriB, of Albany; Congressman George
West, of Ballston; ex-8enator James
Arkell, of Canajoharie; ex-Congressinan
John M. Davy, of Rochester; Silas B.
Ditcher, and their followers, are some of
the influential men who are working for
Mr. Morton. It will be seen that be has
secured the aid ol several of his most
active opponents of two years ago. He
is much stronger than he was then, and
the stubborn fight made against Mr. Evarts
ought to be a warning to Mr. Miller’s ad
herents that they have no easy task before
them. , , ,
As the excitement over the general elec
tion dies down and the lines begin to be
■drawn about the contest for speaker of the
next assembly it will be possible to define
more accurately the relative strength of
the senatorial candidates. There is plenty
of material for speaker among the repub
licans. There will be two ex-speakers in
the house—Gen. James W. Husted (who
again makes his positively last appearance)
and George Z. Erwin, neither of whom has
yet signified an intention of striving for
the honor again. Charles D. Baker, of
, Steuben ; Frank B. Arnold, of Oswego, and
F. B. Kruse, of Cattaraugus, are likely to
be the leading candidates, with Gen. N. M.
■ Curtis and Capt. J. H. Manville as possi
bilities.
ADJUDGED INSANE.
Oriliu.ry Calhoun IiiTratlgotcs a Strange t'nup of
Insanity.
Atlanta Constitution.
Mrs. Mary B. Norwood, a neatly dressed
little woman of apparently forty years of
age, was brought before Ordinary Calhoun
yesterday on a writ of lunacy.
Thursday last Mrs. Norwood was arrest
ed by the police near the corner of Hunter
and Butler streets. Her hat had been
blown from her head, and as a small boy
made an effort to pick it up, Mrs. Norwood
assaulted him with rocks. She was taken
to the police headquarters and placed in a
cell. Soon after the door had been closed
upon her it was made evident by the
manner which she conducted herself,
that she was not in her proper
frame of mind. Her conversation, such as
was drawn out of iier, was disconnected
and void of anything like satisfactory in
formation as to who she was, or what her
ailments were. Her insanity increased as
her confinement was prolonged, and Fri
day night it was evident that the woman
Was not only insane but a raving maniac.
Yesterday morning arrangements were
made to take her before Ordinary Calhoun.
When the officers opened her cell to
take her out she was found to
be . perfectly wild. She had torn
most of her clothes from her person
aud would grab at anything within her
reach, for the purpose of destroying it.
After some trouble her clothes were re
stored and she was carried to the ordi
nary^ office. Among those present at the
investigation was a sister-in-law ot Mrs.
Norwood, who stated that Mrs. Norwood
was from Hamilton in Harris county, nne
had also lived in West Point and came to
Atlanta five years ago. Since her arrival
in Atlanta Mrs. Norwood has been absent
from the city a number of times, taking
short trips and returning to the city.
These trips were made with apparently
no object in view, and in their character
were more like tiie wanderings of a rest
less and dissatisfied person than ot one
who traveled for either business or pleas
ure. A short time ago she was picked up
while wandering abo.it the streets ana
escorted by the police to one of the benevo
lent institutions of the city. She remained
there a day or two and then escaped from
the institution by climbing over the fence.
Recently some of her friends have been
taking care of her at a boarding house on
Decatur street. These and other facts con
nected with her strange actions came out at
the investigation. When the testimony was
all in the jury returned a verdict that Mrs.
Norwood was not only insane but was a
dangerous character and should be carea
for, where she could do no injury to any
one. Judge Calhoun then received the ver-
Norwood could be accommodated. An
- n. atm
asylum where she would be properly
taken care ofand treated. In the meantime, f
the ordinary ordered that Mrs. Norwood 1
be carried to Fulton county jail. He re
quested Deputy Sheriff Greene to have
comfortable quarters prepared for the un-
fortuuate woiuuu, where she could be kept
until Monday, when she would be sent to '
Milledgevilie under escort of P. W. Mer
ritt. Temporarily, until Mrs. Norwood '
could be placed in jail, she was held at the
police headquarters. While there she :
wus uncommunicative and restless. ;
Twice while not being closely i
watched by the officers in
charge, she attempted to escape by
skipping out of the side door .of the office. \
She was run down by officer Green and
brought back. About tl o’clock Mrs. Nor-j
wood was transferred from the police !
headquarters to Fulton county prison, at
which place she will remain until Monday,
when Mr. Merritt will take her to the
asylum. It is said Mrs. Norwood has a
daughter residing in New York, and a tel-
grum was sent to her informing her of
Mrs. Norwood's lamentable condition. It
is also stated that Mrs. Norwood’s hus
band was burned to death some years ago
at his home in Troup county, and that
Mrs. No barely escaped the same fate. i
Last night a physician, who has attend
ed Mrs. Norwood at various times since i
her residence in Atlanta, stated to the '
-Constitution that the insane woman has 1
one or two houses and lots in Atlanta.
Mrs. Norwood’s sister-in-law, who resides ]
in Atlanta, was asked if she could take care j
of her, and stated that she could not, as
tiie lady had become unmanaguble. Ordi- ;
nary Calhoun thinks that with proper J
treatment the condition of Mrs. Norwood >
can be improved, and believing that the
asylum is the best place for her, has de
cided to make that disposition of the case.

Charleston, W. Va., November 8.—
Trouble may yet -arise out of the recent
election held in a portion of this state.
The polls books were printed in such a
manner as to make it appear in the certifi
cates of the several commissioners of elec
tion that the election was held October 2,
1886, instead of in November, as fixed by
the constitutional amendment voted upon
by the people and ratified by the
legislature. If this cannot be settled
it will throw the matter of the
election oi state senator from this district
into the state senate, which is democratic.
But in order to prevent any trouble the
county court of this (Kanawha) county, in
stead of issuing certificates of election to
several officers elected last Tuesday, has
summoned all the commissioners of elec
tion to meet in this city next Thursday
and make oath as to correctness of the
October books. The contest would effect
many elected by both parties.

New Youk, November 7.—The conflict- j
insr statements made in published inter
views by Mr. Elder in regard to Miss Cleve
land’s association with his Chicago maga- I
zinc in which he lias variously asserted
that her health has tailed, that she wished .
to resign because the president wished her ;
to reside in Washington and occupy his j
new house there, etc., tins created a desire
on the part of the public to kiiuw the trut h
concerning tlu matter. A close friend of i
Mi s Cleveland's, who is conversant with
all the facts in the case, and who returned
to-day from a visit to Holland Patent, gave
an interview to the yur, winch in the
morning will publish the following:
“Miss Cleveland was connected with the J
magazine from July 1st until last month,
when she wa» no longer its editor because '
of a violation of contract. After the failure
of Mr. Elder in September, Miss Cleveland
drew another contract with him, and tnis |
was signed when he visited Hollann j
Patent, immediately after he bad made a
settlement witn his creditors. In it he |
bound himself for the performance of;
certain duties, almost all of which he failed •
to perform. She had given him his last,
opportunity to keep his agreements, and j
failing in this, she notified him of' her de- l
termination to have no further business re- !
iations with him. Mias Cleveland was in |
frequent receipt of letters from authors
whose contributions she had accepted, in
quiring if she were editing the magazine,
and saying they had not been paid for their
articles. This of itself was enough to
cause her to sever her relationship with
the publication. She wrote to Mr. Elder
to that efteot. and demanded the instant
payment of tne debts. He further ignored
ner wishes by publishing in the October
number an article of hers which she had
expressly ordered should not be used.
These are but instances of breach of faith
on his part. Miss Cleveland lias not since
had any business communication with Mr.
Elder.”
“Mr. Elder has stated in published in
terviews that she had spoken of resigning
because of her failing health and because
her house had been burned. He also said
in an interview so late as last week that he
was going to Holland Patent to visit her.
Are these .statements true ?”
“The first two arc wholly false. Miss
Cleveland is in better health than at any
time in years. Her house was injured by
fire, but the damages has been repaired
and she is entirely settled again. She is
doing a great deal of literary work. Offers
from publishers and editors reach her
from all parts of this country aud Europe
every day, uid she is equal to the demand
made upon her strength. After her day’s
work sne takes long drives, and returns
refreshed to her desk every morning. As
to Mr. Elder’s visit it is true that he went
to Holland Patent and also true that he
called at Miss Cleveland’s front door;
beyond that he didinot pass. He was sub
sequently informed that he could not
communicate with her except through a
friend of her’s, whose name had been fur
nished him.”
“Is it true that he has threatened to sue
her for breach of contract?”
“Miss Cleveland is the one to take legal
steps, not Mr. Elder. Were she disposed
to push matters he would soon find him
self in a situation from which it would be
difficult to free himself. It is hardly proba
ble that Mr. Elder will initiate such a pro
ceeding.”
“Has Elder paid Miss Cleveland for her
services?”
“He has paid her the salary she de- j
manded, but has not paid the sum of j
money to be forthcoming in case he failed 1
to comply with the contract, nor does she !
stand in any immediate danger of getting ;
it.” , j
“Why does Miss Cleveland not publish a
card announcing her retirement from the
magazine ”
“ She has not thought it necessary to do !
so, but she has promptly replied to all i
friends who inquired of her that she has |
severed her brief connection with the Chi- |
cago magazine. Final proof of her sever
ance with the publication will appear with I
the November issue, which will not bear j
her name or contain any writings of hers.”
“ What are the relations of the president I
and Miss Cleveland?” 1
•• The statement that President Clove- \
land and his sister have had any unpleas-J
ant relations because of her literary pur
suits is wholly and absolutely with
out foundation, and the report
that she was to go abroad on that or
any account is likewise ridiculously
absurd. Miss Cleveland is living at her
home at Holland Patent, continually sur
rounded by her friends and busy with her
literary engagements. She has offers for
far more writing than she can do. It is
just to the president to say that he is
proud of his sister, and honors her charac
ter. Her sister, Mrs. Hoyt, was with her
last week, and her brother is frequently
her guest. She is in constant correspond
ence with the president and Mrs. Cleve
land, and between her and the president
the closest affection exists. The malicious
slander to the contrary emulates from a
source tuat is utterly unworthy of the
slightest consideration.”
